Discussion Add Online World Cup-Style Tournament Mode- playstation,pc,xbox

Hello EA SPORTS FC team,

I would like to strongly request the addition of a proper Online World Cup / International Tournament Mode, similar to the excitement we had during the FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

Back then, one of the most enjoyable experiences was being able to:

Choose a national team
Play a full online tournament against real players
Go through a knockout bracket (group stage → round of 16 → quarterfinals → final)
Experience the feeling of a real World Cup competition online

This created a very competitive and immersive mode that many players loved, especially during the World Cup period.

What I am suggesting:

Please add a permanent or recurring Online International Tournament Mode with the following features:

Full Online Knockout Tournament

Players select national teams (e.g. Croatia, Brazil, France, etc.)
48-team or 32-team bracket format
Real-time matchmaking against other players
Group stage + knockout rounds (just like real World Cup format)

Co-op 2v2 Online Option

Allow players to invite a guest/friend
Play as a duo (2v2) in online tournament matches
Same national team or custom co-op teams
This would make the mode even more fun for friends playing together

Rewards and Progression

Cosmetic rewards (kits, badges, stadium themes)
Seasonal ranking or leaderboard for tournament performance
Special World Cup event weekends

Limited-Time Events

Could be released during international breaks or World Cup years
Or as a recurring event in FUT / Online Seasons

Why this is important:

This mode was one of the most exciting parts of previous FIFA World Cup experiences. It felt unique because it was not just Ultimate Team or regular online seasons — it was a true competitive international tournament against real players.

Many players still miss this experience and would love to see it return in EA SPORTS FC as a dedicated online mode.

Thank you for reading, and I hope this idea reaches the development team.
